Data engineer Jobs in Coswig

Your mission

Wandelbots Nova is a powerful robotics platform — but its success depends on how it feels to build with it.
As a Python Software Engineer in the Wandelbots Nova Developer Experience team, your mission is to make developing robotic applications intuitive, reliable, and enjoyable. You will shape the core tools robot developers use every day - from our Python SDK and CLI to the backend services behind them.

In a small, highly collaborative team, you will design clean APIs, robust abstractions, and smooth workflows that hide complexity without limiting flexibility. You care deeply about quality - architecture, ergonomics, performance, and maintainability - because great developer experience is built into the foundations.
At the same time, you are pragmatic: when needed, you can move fast, build prototypes, and validate ideas through proof of concepts before turning them into production-grade solutions.

Your work will directly influence how developers experience Wandelbots Nova - and how robots are programmed in the real world.

On a daily basis you will:

Design and Build Developer Tooling
Develop and maintain core components of the Nova Python SDK, CLI, VS Code extension and supporting backend services. Work with asynchronous communication, concurrency, packaging, dependency management, and performance optimization.

Own Developer-Facing APIs
Design clean, well-documented APIs and interfaces that abstract away robotics complexity while staying powerful and flexible. Think deeply about versioning, compatibility, and long-term maintainability.

Drive Software Quality & Delivery
Shape CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, containerization, and release processes. Ensure reliable builds, test coverage, documentation generation, and reproducible releases.

Collaborate Closely in a Small, High-Impact Team
Work in a tight-knit engineering team with high ownership. Engage in architecture discussions, design reviews, and cross-team collaboration with platform, robotics, and cloud teams.

Stay Updated: Continuously enhance your skills in technologies and robotics industry trends.

Beyond Coding: Engage in team building and organizational activities.

Your profile

Strong Python Experience
You have several years of professional experience building systems with Python. You are confident working with:

• Asynchronous programming and concurrency
• Dependency management and packaging
• Profiling and debugging complex applications
• Clean modular architecture

Backend & API Design Skills
You understand layered architectures, RESTful API design, and clean interface definitions with OpenAPI specs. You can reason about trade-offs in API evolution, versioning, and extensibility.

DevOps & Delivery Mindset
You are comfortable designing CI/CD pipelines, containerized deployments, automated testing, and release processes. You care about build reproducibility and software quality.

Frontend Curiosity
You are open to occasionally contributing to React/TypeScript-based frontend components - especially where tooling and UI intersect.

Product Mindset
You think beyond code. You care about usability, ergonomics, and the real-world experience of your tools.

Team Player with Ownership
You communicate clearly, give and receive feedback constructively, and enjoy shaping technical direction in a small, ambitious team.

Coding with AI
You have hands-on experience coding with AI tools and understand how they change the way software is built.

Language Skills
You are fluent in English, written and spoken. German is a plus but not required.

Working Mode
You are willing to work on-site in Dresden regularly.

You are awesome if:

• You have experience in robotics, automation, or industrial systems.
• You have experience building SDKs, CLIs, or developer platforms.
• You understand what makes a great developer experience - and have strong opinions about it.
• You have worked in a startup or high-growth environment and are comfortable with ambiguity, ownership, and rapid iteration.
• You love robots - and the idea of making them programmable by everyone.

About us

EASY-TO-USE-ROBOTICS FOR EVERYONE

Imagine a world with more room to unleash our unique cognitive strengths at work. A world where all people – whether craftsmans, blue-collars worker or engineers – have access to automation technologies that perform inhuman, monotonous and high-precision tasks much more efficiently than we do.

At Wandelbots, we're fundamentally reshaping the way to work with robots. We eliminate the complexity and develop easy-to-use solutions to speed up automation and empower everyone to work with industrial robots and beyond.

Mission

2017 founded, Wandelbots employs more than 100 people from 14 countries today. From our headquarters in Dresden Germany, we are giving our heart and soul to follow our mission, to empower everybody to easily work with robots.

Our Culture
